Architectural Study for Advanced Guidance Computers. Part 1. Guidance Programming Language Study.

Abstract

The objective of the study was to define an advanced guidance computer architecture that will permit the effective use of high-order programming languages in the definition and implementation of advanced ballistic missile missions. Part 1 of the Final Report entitled 'Guidance Programming Language Study', presents the specification of a high-order programming language suitable for programming advanced guidance and targeting missions for the advanced guidance computer architectures. A subset of the Space Programming Language (SPL/JG) was selected and improved, and its syntactic forms analyzed for efficient code generation for the architectures under consideration.
